What is interesting to me is that if you look at the parents of N7-141-LP: Silverado X Spring Tidings, neither one is as ruffly as it is, and look at those ruffles! Goes to show that some plants might out produce themselves. Maybe a good reason to cross some of the not so perfict seedlings and see what happens. I also agree with Greg, that trait to produce multiple stalks sure seems like something one might strive to continue. I think it was Rim Of Fire that did that for me last summer, not certain about that though, It might have been Cold Fushion, but I'll watch for it again this spring. I do know is was among a group of Sutton irises though.
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.
